to Fulcrum Sierra Biofuels, LLC to build a biorefinery to produce jet fuel from municipal solid waste (MSW) via a proprietary two-stage thermochemical process. During the gasification process, the prepared MSW feedstock rapidly heats up upon entry into the steam-reforming gasifier and almost immediately converts to syngas.

has successfully demonstrated the conversion of municipal solid waste (MSW)—household garbage—into jet and diesel fuels. For that process, Fulcrum uses a two-stage thermochemical process involving gasification of municipal solid waste (MSW) followed by the catalytic conversion of the syngas to ethanol. Earlier post.).

intends to develop a modular, sorbent-based air separation unit (ASU) for oxygen production to support low-cost hydrogen production from gasification of biomass and/or wastes. The team intends to address the requirement of advancing modular air separation to support modular gasification-based hydrogen production.
